Description

I commissioned this work from Mr. Rude but I was unhappy with it because there was so much White Out. I returned it to him and he kindly redid it. I have the redo posted in this gallery as well. Months later I saw the original (this one) put up for auction by Mr. Rude. I couldn't live with the thought of someone having an artwork that was my idea and so similar to what I had so I bid on it and won. Which do you like most?

Thanks. I asked Mr. Rude to portray Nexus in a quiet contemplative moment in the cockpit of his ship. I rejected this piece because of the amount of wite-out used. I also posted the second attempt by Mr. Rude. He later put this one up for auction on ebay and I bought it. I just couldn't stand the thought of someone else having an art piece that was my idea. Is that weird?
